I don't think Melba could do her self justice if she had to get up and’ sing a scale when she was paralyzed with fear, when her whole future de pended on how those notes were pro duced. and whr-n a single scale or bar was all she was permitted to sing So it’s fo'tunate that the stage man agers give the girls the benefit of the doubt when It comes to voice, and judg. them all by their personal ap pearance, bv the way they act. and especially by the way they walk across the stage. One famous stage manager told me that he always had to take so many things into consideration before judg ing even the walk of the stage aspi» rant. "Why is tt that you girls show your state of mind so plainly In the way you walk?'' said this well known man, whose name I won't mention, because he wouldn’t like to see himself in print giving points on how to be beautiful. ”1 can tell how a girl feels by the way She walks across the stage,” he went on An Example. "There is a timid, shrinking little thing with her back bent trying to hide her head behind her shoulders; she may have a good voice and talent, but her walk is so diffident that no one will ever believe her capable of assert ing herself until she gels over that walk. "The girl who brags about what a great actress she Is going to be, swag gers across the stage like a man until she sees the manager's eyes upon her, and then she becomes so hopelessly awkward that she stumbles over the chair, or even over her own feet, if nothing else In the way. “The girl who doesn’t care whether or not she is going to succeed, and isn’t going to try very hard, has a shambling sort of walk, and the lazy girl gener ally drags her feet. "When you see a girl walk across the stage with a light, springy walk, you can be sure there is plenty of energy and good will behind it, and. I always would rather engage a girl like that than a perfect beauty who goes ga lumphing along, and shakes the whole stage and the very timbers of the building. "The shoeman tells me that he can judge character by the way the girls wear out their shoes. Well, 1 can judge character pretty well by the way the girls stand and walk, and, after all, the wearing of the shoe Is just the re sult of this bad and ungraceful, or alert and graceful, carriage.” As I was curious to know what the stage shoemaker thought about char acter as shown tn shoes, I took the op portunlty to ask him once, and this is what ho had to say about it: “You know there Is nn old proverb that it means money If you wear a hole right in the middle of your sole under the ball of the foot.” said the maker of millions of shoes “That may sound ANNOUNCEMENTS The first regular meeting of the Washington seminary alumnae will be held Thursday afternoon at 4:30 o'clock at the seminary.

(One of the Ziegfeld beauties in “ The Winsome Widow” Company) like one of those foolish superstitions, but it isn’t a superstition, because the person who wears the shoes out even ly, in the middle of the sole, has a firm, well balanced step, and there is noth ing slipshod or lazy about such a per son. A Correct Proverb. "A person like that is bound to have an upright, even character, and to be energetic and persevering. Os course, all those things mean that he will get rich if he tries to, so the proverb is perfectly correct. “The undecided person doesn't accu mulate money so fast, and there is nothing that shows so plainly in old shoes as Indecision. These shoes are partly worn out on either side of the heel because the person stands first on one foot and then on the other, bal ancing the weight unevenly, sometimes on the Inner side of the sole and some times on the outside of the sole. Shoes like that are very hard to patch, and the undecided person is almost always extravagant. “You can always tell a slovenly per son by his shoes, for they will be down at the heel, badly polished, with laces or buttons in disorder. "Os course, the girl who is very vain still pinches her feet and wears shoes that are too small for her. and any shoemaker who gets a worn pair of shoes of this kind in his hands could tell right away that he had to deal with a young person who hadn’t yet got brains enough to know that she must be comfortably shod if she wants to be happy. "Comparatively few women wear shoes too small for them nowadays. The Dinner Party for Governor-Elect Slaton A miniature lake, from which arose a fountain which sent sprays of water playing over banks of fern, starred with clusters of pink and lavender asters, was the central decoration for a bril- • liant dinner party tendered Governor . elect John Marshall Slaton and Mrs. i Slaton Saturday evening by Mr. and Mrs Robert F. Maddox. ’ About the outer edge of the miniature lake were set tall silver vases of pink . and lavender flowers, alternating with silver candlesticks shaded in pink and crystal. The silver platters used in serving the courses were bordered with ' pink and lavender blossoms and banked on mantel, buffet and sideboards were gorgeous blossoms from the gardens of ’ the country estate of Mr. and Mrs. j Maddox, where the dinner was given Covers were laid for 24. the place cards t bearing the monogram of the hostess and the name of the guest in gold.

"You wear your shoes out much sooner by standing on them in an awk ward way than if you stood and walked in a well balanced and graceful man ner. “People are heavy on their feet very often because they are depressed and low-spirited; the minute they are hap pier the tread becomes light and buoy ant again, so you see that I not only judge character; I could almost tell your fortune by looking at your old shoes.” Was Beneficial. Since this conversation with the old shoemaker I hive taken great pains to notice how my shoes were wearing out, and I’m glad to say that I'm beginning to wear them out in the right place, just under the ball of the foot, and the down-trodden heels no longer worry me. I had to learn to walk all over again, but I think it is worth while. I taught myself to walk gracefully by badlanc ing a number of books, piled up on my head, while I was walking to and fro in my room. If you do this you have to swing the legs free from the hip, and hold the upper part of the body erect and well poised. That is all there is to graceful walking, as I suppose every one knows that they should step on the ball of the foot first, and not on the heel. Another thing which most girls for get is to keep their arms still and not swing them to and fro, which is most awkward when you have long arms.

Stetson, to Entertain and Convince Friends, Made Novel Experiment. Elbert Hubbard, in his “Little Jour ney to the Home of John B. Stetson,” relates the following story which tells how Mr. Stetson Illustrated many years ago the methods of felting the fur, which is the first process in the manu facture of either a stiff or soft felt hat It is the basis of hat making The thing that Stetson explained to his friends was something they had never heard of. and at once It caused a big argument. Things people have never heard of they usually denounce as impossible. And while they are saying that this thing can never be done, some fellow just goes ahead and does it! The question turned on getting cloth for shelter tents. One man made the flat, dogmatic statement that cloth was made by weaving, and that it could not be made in any other way. Stetson explained that there was another scheme for making cloth. Stetson ex pounded to them the science of felting. Stetson took some of the skins that his friends collected, sharpened up his hatchet on a convenient stone and shaved the fur off the skins. Taking Fur From Skin. He then cut a bit of a hickory sap ling. -sliced off a thong from one of the skins and made aWiunter’s bow With this bow he agitated the fur so as to keep it in a regular little cloud in the air. Stetson kept the fur in the air, and then it fell gently by its own weight, and was very naturally distributed over a certain space. As It fell, Stetson, with a mouthful of water after the manner of John Chinaman, blew a fine pray of moisture through the fur. Soon here was a mat of fur that could be lifted up and rolled. It was like a thin sheet of wet paper. There was a camp fire near, and a pot of boiling water, and into this boil ing water Stetson dipped his sheet of matted fur. It began to shrink. By manipulating it svrth his hand and rapidly dipping it in the hot water, he soon had a little blanket, woven soft and even of perfect cloth. The argu ment that the thing could not be done faded away into nothingness. Nobody said, "I told you so!” Then He Made a Hat. There was the actual thing—cloth made by the felting process—one of the oldest devices of the human mind. To amuse his friends Stetson made a hat out of the felt. It was big and pic turesque. It protected the wearer from the wind and rain, as well as from the scorching sun. Besides all this, it at tracted considerable attention. It made the wearer the object of envy, ridicule or admiration, as the case may be. This was the first genuine Stetson hat made and sold. That it would eventually lead up to a great industry, no one guessed; but it was the germ of an enterprise that was to be world-wide In its influence. | ENGAGEMENTS Hayes- Rau.
